Our new home...Lowe's

It's amazing how fun a home improvement store is when you actually have a home! Dave and I have gone to Lowe's more times in the last week than we've ever gone there! We traded in our "thank you points" that we get by using our debit card with Citi bank for a $110 Lowe's gift card. There were a million things we considered getting, but we found a work bench on clearance for only $74! We decided to get that and an extension cord for our edger/trimmer. Due to a coupon we had, we ended up with $20 bucks remaining on the gift card. Soooo, what did we do a couple days later...we were back at Lowe's. This time we bought a rake and some gardening tools and still have $6 on the gift card! Not bad! The only bad thing about all this is that we have lots more to move now that we've been shopping. Although, I think in the end, we'll be happy that we've spread our purchases out a bit and have a lot of the things we'll need right away. We still want tons of new furniture, since we're going from a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment to a 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom house! We need bathroom supplies, a new couch, tables, decorations, a new t.v......yeah, I know...all in good time! :)
